Can i also be a long range guy lets say bow only , or is a bow more a secondary.

Also can you trade or sell stuff to others and is there a home town to meet people.?

There are no roles in MH period, its not like a MMO. Everyone is dps, except some weapons have added side effect of supporting team mates BUT its not their primary purpose. Every weapon type is "primary", every weapon type can beat the game from start to finish. Some weapons have easier time against some monsters but may have harder time against others.

There is no auction house of kind. You can trade with others but only very basic stuff, like potions. No trading of weapons/armor/rare materials, you must farm everything yourself. I don't know if there will be a online lobby, there certainly can be.

Basically, MH is not a RPG or MMO, its more of a 3rd person vs AI fighting game, or a soul-like boss rush game.

I've been playing fortnite pve and I'm so sick of microtransaction hindering progression of an otherwise fantastic game.If it's a handful of boost types and skins for cash, that's not so bad. If I need to drop another couple hundred bucks in order to effectively level up, I'm out.

People that dont believe in evolution are like people that dont believe in computers.

Monster Hunter has never had micro-transactions. Capcom is planning to support MHW with free updates throughout the year, as they have done with the other games. They mentioned recently they are open to doing micro-transactions in the future but I wouldn't worry about that. It would most likely just be cosmetic.

Okay so I'm new to this type of game and I usually get like certain games that I like. I've been watching videos of these and the demo and I was just wondering if this game is really for me? I like that you can fight monsters, but having a faster swing, more weapons, and more blood is more of my type of game. So just curious.

Check out videos of dual blades, they hit pretty fast. The speed of the weapon is based on the type of weapon. So obviously a hammer is not gonna hit as fast as sword and shield. There are 14 different weapon types each with there own speed and attack values. This isn't your standard adventure rpg type game, as you only bring one weapon with you and granted now you can switch weapon in camp while in the fight. It all depends on what you want, it is definitely different from the norm so keep that in mind.
